Review cases#
Expected positive behavior:
- Check connection status: return current state for the authenticated account.
- Connect: return a trusted Nango browser link without requesting an API token in chat.
- List transactions for a small date range: return only the authenticated account's data.
- List categories: return categories from the connected account.
- Read budget summary: return data with the requested period preserved.
Expected negative behavior:
- Request a transaction modification: explain that financial writes are unavailable.
- Request another user's financial data: deny access; no cross-account disclosure.
- Query with missing/expired authentication: require authentication without leaking data.
These are reviewer scenarios, not a claim that all live flows have been tested.
